Consideration has been given to the influence of additives of aluminum nanoparticles to mixtures of nanostructured silicon with a solid-phase oxidant on the characteristics of their high-velocity (detonation) combustion. The thermodynamic characteristics of combustion of the systems “aluminum–silicon–oxygen” and “aluminum– silicon–ammonium perchlorate,” and also the Chapman–Jouguet velocity and the thermodynamic characteristics of solid-phase mixtures of nanostructured silicon with ammonium perchlorate and aluminum nanoparticles with a varying content of aluminum oxide have been calculated in a wide range of compositions. It has been established that for mole fractions of aluminum of less than 0.33 in the solid-fuel mixture, the system has high-velocity-combustion characteristics inherent in silicon-enriched mixtures. It has been shown that detonation combustion of aluminum–silicon–sodium perchlorate mixtures in this region of concentrations of aluminum occurs with a significant velocity defect (of 40–50%) with respect to the Chapman–Jouguet detonation velocity.
